Description

Based on the author's own childhood memories, The Night of the Hedgehog is as tender and sweet a father-daughter book as you can get and will hopefully inspire a whole new generation of keen hedgehog spotters.

A little girl is woken up by her father and, together, they tip-toe bare foot outside, stepping into the cool night-time garden. They wait to see it – their snuffling, shuffling nocturnal visitor. And what a treat to behold not just ONE hedgehog, but a mummy and her three adorable little, prickly babies, coming for a little sip of water before they mosey onwards, down the hedgehog highway.

Praise for Mum, Me and the Mulberry Tree:
"A beautiful love letter to the way a day used to feel." Jon Klassen, author of I Want My Hat Back
"A splendid, tender and heart-warming joy of a book." Joseph Coelho, Waterstones Children's Laureate 2022-24
"Evokes the sweet immediacy of small childhood rituals – and the loving memories they lay down for a lifetime." Guardian
